A lantern sconce belongs on buildings that a flat modern block would look wrong on. Period frontages, cottages, converted barns, brick porches, stone gateposts. The traditional lantern shape reads as something that has always been there rather than something added last spring, which is the whole point of choosing this over a rectangle.
It takes a standard E27 bulb, which is worth more than it sounds. You choose the brightness and the colour temperature yourself, you can fit a warm filament bulb to suit the period look, and when it eventually goes you replace a bulb rather than the entire fitting. Integrated LED units do not give you that option at all. Fit a bulb rated for enclosed fixtures, because an open rated LED runs hot inside a sealed lantern and fails early.
Mount it beside a front or back door, on a porch, at a gate, along a garden wall, or in pairs flanking an entrance. Electrical installation should be carried out by a qualified electrician and must comply with local wiring regulations, with the supply isolated before any work begins. Check that the bulb you fit is rated for the fitting and for outdoor use. Buy it now.

Frequently Asked Questions
What buildings does a lantern suit?
The ones a flat modern block would look wrong on. Period frontages, cottages, converted barns, brick porches and stone gateposts.
Why choose the traditional shape?
It reads as something that has always been there rather than something added last spring, which is the whole point of choosing it over a rectangle.
What bulb does it take?
A standard E27, which means you choose the brightness and warmth rather than being stuck with whatever an integrated LED gives you.
Can I change the character of the light?
Yes. A warm low output bulb reads as a lantern, a brighter one turns it into a working entrance light, and you can swap between them in seconds.
Who should install it?
A qualified electrician should carry out exterior mains work, with the circuit isolated at the consumer unit before starting.
